Quick tip

Lower Cholesterol Naturally
As part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, plant sterols may reduce bad cholesterol (LDL) by 5-15%.

Plant sterols occur naturally in foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. But you’d have to eat 44 apples or 26 oranges to get the same amount found in fortified foods. Fortified foods include spreads (such as Benecol), beverages (such as Minute Maid Heartwise) and snacks (such as Nature Valley Healthy Heart granola bars).
